They are high quality for sure. I "need" to do at least one more build to feel justified in buying them. =]

Yeah I plan on using them enough to justify the cost.

Basically every off the shelf guitar has poorly cut nut and that kind of tool will always be handy

Lookin' good, Plops!

I feel like each town should have a communal set of nut files; you only ever use them for like 2 minutes, maybe once a year or two, and they cost a fucking bunch for non-shit ones.

GIVE ME THEM TIMESHARE NUTS, ASSHOALS
